Anyone ever reengined a SD1?

Just interested if something such exists, alternatively are there kits to get more poke out of the 3500 engine?

Install a 4.6? Makes a big differance, plus it drops straight in.

No other changes necessary? (apart from upgrading the suspension and brakes to cope)

I've been having a look at tuning mine, and it seems that making the existing RV8 bigger plus induction mods are the way to go.

Have heard Supercharging can cause problems?


However...this SD1 has a 27 litre RR Meteor engine

Drop in a 4.6, add a decent cam, then spend some serious money on getting maximising the gas flow through the heads. The heads are the biggest restricting factor when building a performance RV8. If you can't afford Wildcats (the ultimate) try to find a set of '64 Buick 300.
